Peach Pickles Recipes

PEACH PICKLES

Steps:

• Dip peaches in boiling water, one at a time for 30 seconds. Run under cold water. Peel. Cut into 4 or 6 wedges each. Discard pit, repeat for other peaches.
• Pour sugar and vinegar into saucepan. Tie spices in double layer of cheesecloth; add.
• Bring to a boil. Cover. Boil slowly for 5 minutes. Add peaches.
• Cook, uncovered for about 5 minutes until soft. Discard spice bag.
• Pack peaches into hot sterilized jars to within 1 inch of top. Fill jars with syrup to within 1/2 inch of top. Place sterilized metal lids on jars and screw metal bands on securely. For added assurance against spoilage, you may choose to process in water bath for 10 minutes.

DELICIOUS PICKLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Combine juice from canned peaches, sugar, vinegar, allspice, and cloves in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in peach halves. Let cool, about 15 minutes.
• Cover saucepan with plastic wrap and refrigerate until flavors combine, 8 hours to overnight.

PICKLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Pour sugar and vinegar into a large saucepan, and stir to dissolve sugar. Add cinnamon sticks and cloves, and bring to a boil. Cover and boil for about 5 minutes. Strain out the cloves and cinnamon sticks, or you can leave them in for a stronger flavor.
• Pack peaches into hot sterile 1 pint jars to within 1 inch of the rim. Fill each jar with syrup to within 1/2 inch from the top. Wipe rims with a clean dry cloth, and seal with new lids and screwbands. Process in a hot water bath for 10 minutes.

PICKLED PEACHES

Steps:

• Toast pickling spice and crushed red pepper in a dry medium saucepan over high heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add water, vinegar, sugar, and salt and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add peaches and simmer just until tender, about 20 minutes. Remove peaches from liquid with a slotted spoon, reserving liquid, and set aside just until fruit is cool enough to touch.
• Pinch the skin from peaches-if the skin pulls off easily-and discard. (If the skins cling, don't fret-the peaches will be beautiful and tasty that way as well.) Transfer peaches to a sealed container, cover with the reserved liquid, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours. The peaches will keep for 1 week tightly sealed in the refrigerator.
